I am shocked by this. Do these people really think they are ready? Wow. I can't imagine being that ignorant.

Well, I was quite shocked by the amount of ppl who was eating candy or drinking soda but the lady with the bacon, cokes, and beer was killing me! I think she was older (late 50s) and either refused to hear or read what's expected w this surgery or just don't understand. They had her stay after for 1on 1 counseling. They did talk about a guy who left the hospital the other day and his driver stopped at a fast food resturaunt. The patient had a French fry and later wound up in ICU. VERY VERY sick. Lesson learned!

On the same note, my endocrinologist told me of one of his diabetes patients who had the surgery. While in the hospital immediately following the surgery, he had someone smuggle in pizza. He ate it, ruptured all his staples, and died. I can't believe people like this manage to pass the psych evaluation.!

I have my preop class tomorrow. I have to be there at 830am and they said to expect to be there until 430p Wow...8 hours?? Im a little intimidated by the length of this class. Hopefully it's up beat and encouraging. I really don't need anymore to think about or second guess. But I am looking forward to getting this going and I feel like things are going very fast now. So anyway...just what's on my mind tonight!

peace
